Abstract:
HISTORY-A 47-year-old male was on a cliff when he jumped into the water below. He jumped about 50 feet. Upon landing in the water, he felt his legs separate and abduct violently. He was taken to the Emergency unit of the nearest trauma center and was found to have no injuries except to his pelvis. He could not weight bear because of pelvic pain but had normal distal sensory and motor exam and rectal exam. His-pelvis was painful to examination anteriorly with minor left-sided posterior SI pain, and he had no blood at his meatus. X-rays and CT were done, (Figures 1-5).

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
